Yep! Silverlight 2 Rocks. The detail is just like EPS. You would have also seen this from MIX08 (visitmix.com) with the videos finally filtering through, even if its AOL.
I just watched the 2007 Keynote with Ray Ozzie and Steve Guthrie in which they just announced Silverlight 1.0, during which the Project leader unwittingly demonstrated Expression Studio’s “reboot” capability.
A key advisor on IE8, Molly Holzschlag was in this region for a month, yet she didn’t do any conventions in Sydney, now she’s in Las Vegas. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
I must admit, playing around with xBlend 2.5, I wondered what MultiScaleImage was. Serious amounts of cool right there.
There goes my weekend too…so many cool new things to play with…
Hmmm. What is this strange “reboot” feature you speak of? This must be very interesting. Please tell me more.
(ducking)

@ Andrew: Its in the Ray Ozzie Keynote for Mix 2007 (KYN001) at http://sessions.visitmix.com when Wayne Smith was demonstrating the Expression Media Encoding (EME) tool at 00:45:18 of the 2 1/2 hour keynote, Wayne clicked on Settings and the application seemed to shutdown but a gauge showed loading and in 5 seconds, the app restored and the audience laughed. Wayne said that was a demo of the Fast Reboot” facility in E.M.E. Then it was a simple matter of bactracking a few steps and move right along. Not too traumatic.
@Thomas: Hey, that’s pretty neat. Just like Firefox. Thanks!
I’ve produced a full sample from all the bits floating around –

It includes the mouse wheel, keyboard controls and catching a few bugs. Download the code and put in your images.
